Steve,
I will swear that they were not! ... Granted I had partaken in a few drams ++. However, it was my wife who wanted to sniff it, whilst it was still on the table,.. catching her hair on the table candle! However, slapping down on my wife's head in order to extinguish matters, did not look good! ......... we left shortly after! ..

Edit, But that is another story!

No it well Marc as the river Dochart is one of my favourite trout rivers a mile or so up from the falls and an hour and a half's drive from my house if you leave early enough to dodge the caravans on Loch lomand road , once had to dip my head in the river to stop the midge's biting has some nice trout in it if you know where to look .
Good spots,the ford, Robroy's pool, the shooting field the shepherds poll "thats where he drowned " and achnagal all good for about 3 fish each

Ron! don't go there! .. my novice attempts at trout fishing cost me dearly! ..Never mind Loch Tay! .. Oh the shame of it! ..... The Scotch pies were good though!

Rich, I wouldn't know! I think the fishing on the 'Clyde',. May have been more eventful than was intended!

As an Englishman I am delighted that our family is not to be rent asunder. Many of my fellow countrymen have made unpleasant comments about our Scottish brethren. I have no doubt that the vast majority of Nationalists voted with their hearts in the right place and will be bitterly disappointed with the result. To them I would only say, you have no idea how much Scots have contributed to both the United Kingdom, and to England, and for you to have left the fold would have been a day of immeasurable sadness to many of us in the rest of the now re-United Kingdom.

Many of my friends and colleagues hale from over the border, and for them to be either foreigners in the land of their birth, or in the land in which they live and work, would be sad beyond belief.

Here's hoping that something positive comes out of this, especially if, despite Ken Livingstone's famous quote about democracy (if it changed anything it would be banned) there is a force for change in our nation. I for one would back a federal UK, much like the Commonwealth of Australia (the land of my parents).

Mark fishing in the upper Clyde is very good but takes avery experienced angler to do well ,but the trout run to about 5 lbs ; average one and a half , have there own distinct trout flies which you must use if you want to be successful . here is the essentials but they are still overdressed for success

the last one you cannot buy as it is my own creation , almost god enough to cook

 

[Tubby-Nuts2]

Ron. Nice flies! .. ! .. but those days are long gone for me! maybe not the 'Malt'.

Since we're now widening the scope of this thread, let me just say that when I see Milliband I think of a Madame Tussauds waxwork that' s been left too near the fire.
Still Freedom for Northampton!!!

Just looked at the Glasgow thing, they're not pro union or pro independence, they're just thugs looking for an excuse!
